Cam Akers

Cam Akers rushed for 65 yards on six carries in Sunday night's 31-9 loss to the Detroit Lions. He also caught two passes for four yards. Akers' longest run of the game was a 58-yard burst in the second quarter, his longest run since his rookie season in 2020.

Fantasy Impact

Akers' big play provided a spark for the Vikings' offense, but his overall production was limited. He remains a volatile fantasy option with limited upside in a crowded backfield.

Cam Akers ran for three yards on his lone carry in the Vikings 27-24 win over the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact

Akers wasn't as involved this week after he had been more involved in recent games. He remains off the fantasy radar.

Cam Akers carried the ball 10 times for 24 yards and a touchdown in a 30-12 win over the Bears in Week 15.

Fantasy Impact

Akers scored on a one-yard run in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach for the Bears. The veteran running back has locked up a role as the Vikings' backup running back behind Aaron Jones Sr., a role that he has parlayed into two touchdowns over his past five games. Akers should be rostered as a high-end handcuff in all fantasy leagues heading into Week 16 against the Seahawks.

Cam Akers carried the ball five times for 37 yards in the Vikings' 42-21 win over the Falcons in Week 14.

Fantasy Impact

Akers has offered mixed results out of the Minnesota backfield, rushing for less than 50 yards in three of his last four games. The running back is best left out of lineups until further notice despite a favorable contest against the Chicago Bears up next in Week 15.

Cam Akers carried the ball four times for 22 yards in the Vikings' 23-22 Week 13 win over the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

Akers continues to produce minimal results out of the Minnesota backfield, finishing with less than 50 rushing yards in each of his seven games with the Vikings. The running back offers little value with No. 1 option Aaron Jones healthy ahead of a Week 14 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
